Hi Werner

Yep, ET13 front & rear. So only 2mm different to Rob's.
Probably should have been another 5mm further in, so is that ET8 or ET18 ??

ET = distance from the bolting face(wheel/hub)to the calculated wheel centre line.
So an ET 50mm will have more of the wheel under the arch than ET 0mm

BUT :!:
as I said in another reply you have to still clear the shocks and inner body. To see what is possible , you will have to lay under the car with a torch and mirror checking/measuring clearance then plan your offset change/body mod's :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Been there , done that , ha ha ha :wink: :wink: :wink:

I'm completely lost now.

So the standard rim on a classic stylus (escort axle) is 14"x5.5J with offset 13?

Werner , if it's a Classic before Tim took over SSC then wheels were 14x6 , not sure of the off set . However , Tim no longer sells kits on 14 's . Both RT and Classic would be supplied on 15 x 7 with 195 x 45 tyres as a standard fitment . Off sets will be different on each so check with Tim.
